Something, Something

I am that shadow
Haunt you wherever I go
Walk with you in darkness
I see what you know
I feed on your essence
Just like my daily bread
You live some, you lose some
It's all the same in the end
I know what you wish for
As I rip apart your soul
I rip you up and spit you out
And pick my teeth with your bones
Oh, what they say
What a clever one you are
Never seem to get anywhere
Because you never go too far
From here to nowhere and back again
Is as far as you'll ever get
Seems so much easier
Living life without regret
So why do you shackle
That which sets you free?
Are you so scared of out there,
That you'd rather stay in here with me?
Down in your darkness
Deep in your hole
Are you so scared of out there,
Or just have nowhere to go?

Stars & Garters

There’s a new train a-comin’
Comin’ down the line
Fueled on foolishness
And the devil’s wine
We’re too busy drinkin’
No longer thinkin’
Sippin’ and a-trippin’ and a-losin’ our minds
Oh, my stars and garters
As I live and breathe
Never thought this could happen to me
Oh, my stars and garters
As I live and breathe
You and me and the devil make three
The train’s still a rollin’, rollin down the line
But now me and the devil are drinkin’ turpentine
Our bellies are getting swollen while you’re losing your mind
And I’m in the backdoor, baby
Fuckin’ your kind
Oh, my stars and garters
As I live and breathe
I love to see ya down on your knees
Oh, my stars and garters
As I live and breathe
You and me and the devil
Is one too many

Roaring 20's

Oh, they marched us through the forest
To find the highest tree
Gave us just enough rope, yeah
To make it hard to breathe
When the self-righteous man turned away
He stopped and he explained
It’s not because we're different, no
It's because we're not the same
Because we're not the same?
And all but dead-end roads are closed
Paved with outdated tomes and broken bones
And all signs they show
We ain’t ever,
We ain’t ever going home
The air hung heavy with stale champagne musk
Little lords with their false crowns
Started to throw tantrums and cuss
Because the world they wished to inherit
Turned to dust
Because in time, all iron fists must rust
In time all iron fists must rust
In time all iron must rust
And all but dead-end roads are still closed
Paved with outdated tomes and broken souls
And all signs they still show
We ain’t ever going home

Run-On
01:39

These tainted pipes
From which tainted water flows
To water bad seeds
To watch them bad things grow
You've got a sailor's mouth
And a thief’s appetite
You gotta murderous smile, yeah
But a coward's bite
Right now, you're on the run
Heading nowhere towards the setting sun
You've been found out,
Your disguise undone
And you're so cold
And you're so slow
With nowhere to go
All alone

It came grinding from the West
Stealing visions, stealing breath
Stalking hard from the East
Like a cold, abrasive beast
A slow, biting swarm
Ever-changing, faceless storm
Some went to hide
Some gave in
And went to the other side
We could lend a helping hand
Or bury our heads in the sand
Turn our backs on the weak
With beliefs that are antique
Not all are villains by choice
How to decide on the gallows
Which enemies to hoist
In a world with different hearts
Who's to say which ones get torn apart?
Who's to say who's right?
Who's to say who's wrong?
When it comes time to choose to fight,
The time to choose, might be long gone

Shark Noir
01:06

Chaos ensued as we sank
Lifeboats filled by rank
Those who think they're better than you
Went first in their fancy suits
Singing fuuuuuuuck youuuuuu
Dead chums
Sinking raft
We die
While they laugh
Raft gets torn apart
Get ready for the sharks
With the tide, we drift away
We awake to a better day

March On and On and On
05:02

We walked the wasted lands
We waltzed the whitened sands
The places we’ve been
You’d never understand
Can’t ever understand
We reach for the stars
Just to feel them burn
Swallowed the lies
And then ate the worm
Burdened by lessons
That we never learned
Which we never learned
Double-cross double-crossers
Felt the sting of the curse
It’s not as bad as you think it is
It’s much worse
So much worse
We walked the wasted lands
We waltzed the whitened sands
The places we’ve been
You’d never understand
Won’t ever understand
Can’t ever understand

End of the Line

Little ghosts haunt your head
Look to you to count their dead
They heard the cursed words that you said
While their loved ones died in bed
They heard the lies
The truths denied
Now they need your head
To hear your dying breath
Rise to your doom
We have built a tomb
Sized just for you
That we choose
To burn down
Straight to the ground
A burial mound
Never to be found
